The events will take place in the “villa of Sikelianos”, the most important, perhaps, landmark of the Municipality of Xylokastro Eurostini, where golden pages of the cultural history of Greece in the 20th century were written, in Pefkia which was its garden and in Xylokastro which was indelibly influenced by her presence.
The events will honor the woman who with her turbulent and unconventional personal life, multifaceted personality and her work was destined to influence the world!
On the three days of July 5-7 in Sykia and Xylokastro, the cosmopolitan, the philologist, the choreographer, the musician, the composer, the innovative instrument maker, the director, the clothes designer, the stylist, the weaver, the ideologist, the intellectual, the activist, the deep scholar and preacher of the ancient Greek and Byzantine culture, the revivalist of the ancient holidays, the “priestess of the Greek culture”, “welcomes” us in her own home,
